Chromium-based browser users:
If you want a uBlock Origin alternative, look at AdGuard.
Chromium now has initial, experimental support for the xdg-session-management #wayland protocol, which will start shipping in canary channel in the coming days. I've implemented and tested it against Mutter 48, the only compositor supporting it atm - also experimentally - since version 47.

Même sous #GNU/ #Linux #Debian, #Chromium ne pourra plus respecter l’utilisateur ! Avec son Manifest V3, #Google impose le respect de ses propres accords commerciaux en maintenant les publicités de ses partenaires sous les yeux de l’utilisateur, de gré ou de force.

Lol, I was right into thinking there was something "off" about #ZorinOS years ago when I was considering which #Linux distro to migrate away from #Windows. Shitty, reactionary decisions like this would turn me off so badly and seriously make me question their judgement. If they actually care about "privacy" and have issues with #Firefox (or rather, #Mozilla), something like #LibreWolf would've been a more natural choice rather than moving to a #Chromium based browser, as if #Google needs a stronger dominance in their web presence - let alone #Brave. https://youtu.be/pektPYhM7pw

After wondering why the screen reader wasn't working with Flatpak versions of Chromium and GNOME Web, I figured I should document this somewhere

This is a pretty cool yet somewhat creepy website lol.
#US #wildfire suppressants rife with #toxic #heavymetals
Study reveals widely used pink wildfire suppressants contain high levels of toxic heavy metals: #cadmium, #arsenic, and #chromium, concentrations up to 3,000x above #drinkingwater limits. While gov and chemical makers have long concealed up to 20% of suppressants' ingredients as "trade secrets" researchers have confirmed their role in environmental #pollution, raising concerns over extensive use in residential areas

Minimal Linux OS runs in a 6MB PDF Document in Chrome.
A version of the Linux operating system can now be run inside a PDF opened by a Chromium-based browser. The developer [Ading2210] explains that Linux need a modified version of the TinyEMU RISC-V emulator.
#OpenSuse #Tumbleweed. Plötzlich öffnen die Browser keinen Datei-Dialog mehr. Weder Down- noch Upload. Betrifft #Firefox und #Chromium. Wtf.
I would like to be logged in to Youtube to participate in some live chats and to occasionally comment.
#Vivaldi is based on #Google's #Chromium platform. I know that #Google is working to kick uBlock Origin out of the #Chrome Extension Store since it's an effective YouTube ad blocker.
So I'll use Vivaldi as my browser and Firefox as a YouTube viewer!
Otherwise, I'd use Freetube or just log out of Google and watch add free.

Interesting! #uBlock Origin will prevent #YouTube from seeing I'm using an Ad Blocker (uBlock itself) on #Firefox but NOT on #Vivaldi.
So If I'm logged into #Google via Vivaldi, I'm blocked on #YouTube from watching anything since I use the evil uBlock Origin.
If I'm not logged into Google, then Vivaldi is ad-free with uBlock
But if I'm logged in on Google/YouTube via Firefox with uBlock, no issues and no ads.

Been fighting with a weird bug / issue in Bazzite, and (knocking on wood) I think I may have finally figured out what triggers it?
For the months now, I would have an issue (at least daily) where my center monitor stops updating the picture. If I don't resolve the issue (typically by ctrl+alting to a diff session and then back) quickly enough, eventually the remaining screens would stop updating, and the entire system would hang.
This problem seemed to get worse when I tried using Floorp for my browser, so on a whim I've tried going back to a diff browser as my daily driver - and specifically using Vivaldi (Chromium based) for my always-running-twitch-stream.
And so far, the issue hasn't resurfaced...? Again, knocking on wood?
Like I'll be truly happy if that issue is resolved with this, but am going to be very irate if there's just some weird intersection of firefox fork / nvidia drivers / video streaming / bazzite that I discovered, causing this hang. :/
Vivaldi unterstützt auch weiterhin uBlockOrigin.
Edit: Die bei mir installierte Version habe ich noch nicht aktualisiert ...

#Vivaldi #Chromium #Browser
With all of these Chromium changes this year, I think I’m going to give Floorp another try as my daily driver for a while. Features similar to Vivaldi, but a Firefox fork.
Do #Chromium-based browsers have a weird bug with handling video volume, at least on Windows? This has happened in two browsers now: #OperaGX and #Vivaldi
- Play a video, pop it out, adjust the volume
- Pause it
- Wait 10-30 seconds, do something in a different window
- Unpause video, the volume has *increased* all on its own
- Volume slide in popout window also doesn't stay in step with original slider in browser tab
Annoying
